The following is traditionally recited at many Zen Temples before a period of meditation.  It's a reminder to use time - not "kill" time:


Let me respectfully remind you,

Life and Death are of extreme importance.
Time passes swiftly by, and opportunity is lost.
Each of you should strive to awaken, awaken.
Take heed . . do not squander your lives.
